Animated short film, September 2024
Written and directed by Naomi Noir
Loving mother and full-time carer, every day is a battle for Mary. Wading through the bureaucratic mess that comes with caregiving has her isolated, unsupported, and sleep-deprived. Simultaneously she struggles to fully understand her disabled, non-verbal son Murphy’s needs. After being dealt another blow by an obtuse administrator, reality begins to blur. Finding the beauty in the everyday has never been more challenging. Naomi Noir pays tribute to society’s true heroes in her surreal yet touching animation, giving a voice to those who dedicate their lives to others.
